I'm so sick of every single medical-related question people have online constantly getting spammed with 'talk to your doctor!!!!'

The way people online constantly say ‘talk to your doctor’ like it’s a panacea is a lot like how medieval peasants weren’t able to read scripture and they just had to trust their clergy’s interpretations...

I might just be people want to be helpful but they don’t have any way of helping you, so they default to that statement.

Trump Demands Biden Take a Drug Test Before Debating and Claims the President Was ‘High as a Kite’ During the State of the Union (www.mediaite.com)

“I just wanna debate this guy, but you know– and I’m gonna demand a drug test too, by the way,” Trump said as the audience cheered. “I am. No, I really am. I don’t want him coming in like the State of the Union. He was high as a kite.”

The debates will be a lot more boring if they’re both not on drugs.

Zelensky: 'Our partners fear that Russia will lose this war' (kyivindependent.com)

President Volodymyr Zelensky believes that Ukraine’s partners “are afraid of Russia losing the war” and would like Kyiv “to win in such a way that Russia does not lose,” Zelensky said in a meeting with journalists attended by the Kyiv Independent....

Kyiv’s allies “fear” Russia’s loss in the war against Ukraine because it would involve “unpredictable geopolitics,” according to Zelensky.

Is “unpredictable geopolitics” a euphemism for ‘nuclear war’?

and the kernel folks just went “it is the kernel, everything is critical”

tl;dr: this is pretty much an elaborate “go fuck yourself” towards shady ‘security’ companies.

Apologies for my ignorance, but could you elaborate?

I’m sincerely not seeing the connection between saying everything is critical as a go fuck yourself towards those companies.

Is it a ‘death by quantity’ thing?

Why Didn't Democrats Do More When They Controlled Both Houses of Legislature, The White House, and The Supreme Court During Obama's First Term?

I’ve been wondering for a bit why during the time the Democrats controlled the legislature, executive, and judicial branches during Obama’s first term in 2008 more wasn’t accomplished. Shouldn’t that have been the opportunity to make Row V Way law and fix the electoral college? I understand the recession was going on but...

Are you prepared to shell out potentially 10’s of thousands of dollars to actually defend your license? That’s my biggest question in this, because if not it really is a waste of time and effort.

Well if the license is flagrantly ignored I’m sure Creative Commons would probably have something to say about it.

Having said that, I meant for you to also go to the top of that link conversation to read everything that’s been discussed, including my answer to the question you just asked.

Also, we’re really derailing the topic of the post.

@CosmicCleric@lemmy.world avatar

I did, but you never really answer the question, are you financially prepared and willing to actually defend your license in court?

I did, both in the link that I originally gave you, as well as replying to your comment directly.

And also your link has become incredibly obnoxious, you don’t need all those “~”

That’s a problem with your mobile client, you’ll need to speak to the devs of your client about that.

It’s not supporting subscript and superscript fonts correctly, per Lemmy’s help page on formatting comments. Also discussed in that original link I gave you.

If we could stop derailing the current topic?

This is it. Trump didn’t give a flying shit at all if anything he did was legal, he just went for it, and it worked.

Congress had passed 161 other substantial bills

[citation required] (bolded part)

Also, it was all over the news and online and in papers that the ACA and trying to get it passed over the finish line was a lot of hard work, that took a lot of time and effort, that it ‘sucked up all the oxygen in the room’ for other stuff.

Toilet seat belongs down - and the lid with it! It’s not only logical, but also just.

The thing is, at least in our household, the lid has to stay up.

I actually thought as you do, as that would be a perfect compromise, both parties would have to work to use the toilet.

But from what I’m told, is the late night half asleep moments where you forget to put the seat down, and you fall down into the toilet, that is being prevented by making sure the seats always down and the lid is always up.

It’s a low hanging fruit way of maritial bliss, so I go with it.

Because subconsciously they want to fuck their mom of course.

That’s a very Oedipus Rex statement.

Maybe I’m not understanding you but lid down is a foolproof way to not fall in from my perspective.

My wife always forgets when she gets up in the middle of the night, and falls in, or sits on the lid and has to get up and put the lit up and seat down herself.

So she asks me to always make sure to put the seat down for her, something that I’m happy to do, as a happy wife is a happy life.

Lid down so the flush spray is mostly contained is enough reason, no?

We never have that problem in our household. 🤷

We have a toilet that flushes in the front to the back in a jet, there’s never any splash.

Where the falling in problem tends to reoccur, if not prevented.

I’ve had this happen to me. I suspect it’s one sad MRA type with a pile of accounts bringing the downvotes.

If true, I’d feel really sad for that person, in a go outside and touch grass sort of way.

Honestly, at this point I expect the large amount of downvotes for anything I post. I’ve had that happen to a post where I just said “Thanks” and nothing else. Its sad, and I’d wish the Lemmy admins would catch that sort of thing more often (understanding that they are volunteers, but still), as it doesn’t make my experience here on Lemmy any better than when I was on Reddit.

enjoy brushing your teeth later.

Actually our bathroom sink is outside of the bathroom toilet, with a door seperating them. 🤷

Seat is down if thenlid is down.

Our lid is seperate from the seat. One can be done down while the other one is still up.

CosmicCleric,
@CosmicCleric@lemmy.world avatar

So you can have the lid down while seat is up? Then what you said before makes much more sense. Though not sure what purpose this feature brings. Or how that would even lool like, never seen anything like that.

Are you trying to be purposely obtuse, or intellectually dishonest?

Or are you trying to let me know I have a typo somewhere in one of my earlier comments, without actually explicitly saying so?

Or do you have a magic toilet where urine can pass through the lid when its down?

You said your lid and seat are totally independent - suggesting you can leave the seat up but close the lid.

I believe that’s an interpretation mistake on your part (the italicized part).

I was responding in disagreement to your comment about how both of them have to both be up together, or both down together, to actually use the toilet.

A reminder of what I was responding to…

So she asks me to always make sure to put the seat down for her,

Seat is down if thenlid is down.

Our lid is seperate from the seat. One can be done down while the other one is still up.

I wasn’t commenting on what order they stack on top of each other.

I feel like I’m being trolled myself tbh.

For the record, not trolling at all, it’s not what I do.

So lets just shake our headsbin unison and carry on.

And yes, this is definitely not a subject we should be continuing to talk about. Have a good day.

You say “just… trying to protect existing housing zoning” as if it isn’t an absolutely catastrophic, economically ruinous, and socially unjust clusterfuck.

There’s no commentary, or opinion, or politics, in my comment.

Just stating my understanding of the literal article.

@CosmicCleric@lemmy.world avatar

That’s not true. “Protect” is loaded language.

How so?

And what word would you use instead that had the same meaning?

Perhaps you’re oversensitive to the usage of that word?

https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/legalcode.en

CosmicCleric,
@CosmicCleric@lemmy.world avatar

‘Protect’ can imply it’s a victim of an unjust action.

Not in the context of how I used it. Context matters.

‘Maintain’ may perhaps be a more neutral term.

The article describes a conflict between the city and the state, so ‘maintain’ would not be a proper word, ‘protect’ would be. The state was trying to take something away from the city.

I had comments in Lemmy News telling me they hope I get raped with a rusty lawn mower blade,

Curious if you reported them?

If so, did you check the mod log to see if they were banned? Did the offending comment get removed?

followed by someone downvoting all of my past comments in succession after that comment.

Personally I would say that’s happening to you, sure. I’ve experienced something similar, over something much more trivial than what you’ve experienced.

Apparently it’s someone’s personal mission in life to try to maintain their version of ‘order and peace’ on Lemmy, through their singular actions.
